Stars of the Long Night
Set in the Niger Delta this novel tells the tale of a women's struggle for equality in a traditional patriachal society. Against the backdrop of a once-in-a-generation festival at which the one chosen by the gods performs the dance of the mother mask, Ojaide weaves a tale of suspense while at the same time displaying the traditions and religious beliefs that define the Niger Delta.
